Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.123
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (24 May 2013),seven songs from seven digfferent movies was covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
8120 Ajeeb hai zindagi ki manzil Aakaash(1953) 6 songs covered out of 7 by now

8126 Kaanton se chhedte hain mere jigar ke chhaale Qeemat(1946) Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now

We observe that three movies (out of seven) whose songs were covered in the blog on this date ten years ago (on 24 May 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with four unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (24 May 2023). Out of these four unYIPPEED movies, two movies have only one song left to be covered but that last song could not be located, so these two movies cannot be taken up under BTYC. That leaves us with juste eligible for BTYC and whose remaining songs are available.

“Dekha Pyaar Tumhaara”(1963) was produced by Tahirbhai Akbarali Khety and directed by K Parvez for Mamta movies, Bombay. The movie had Naaz, Subi Raj, Achla(Sachdev), Helen, Madan Puri, Sadhna Chowdhry, Sham Kumar, Lotan, Baby Ismat, Bhagwan etc.

“Dekha Pyaar Tumhaara”(1963) had six songs in it. Two songs have been covered so far.

Here is the third song from the movie to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Suman Kalyanpur. Majrooh sultanpuri is the lyricist. Raj Ratan Raj (actual name Abdul Majeed Sheikh) is the music director.

Only audio of the song is vailable. It is the title song of the song. So it may have been lip synced by the leading lady of the movie, who appears to be Naaz. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of the song.

Lyrics of the song were sent to me by Prakashchandra.

Lyrics(Provided by Prakashchandra)

koyi bura kahey

main shaadi karne chalaa
arrey main shaadi karne chalaa
o koyi bura kahey ya kahey bhala

aahaa haa haa

sansaar mein tanhaa tanhaa
beethegi umariyaa kaisey ae
sansaar mein tanhaa tanhaa
beethegi umariyaa kaisey
jeevan ki ye lambi gaadi
chalti nahin ik pahiye se
ek saathi lekar manzil par
aabaadi karne chalaa
arrey main shaadi karne chalaa
o koyi bura kahey ya kahey bhala
main shaadi karne chalaa
arrey main shaadi karne chalaa

duniyaa mein kunwaarey ko to
miltaa nahin dhoondhey ghar bhi
jodi jo kahin mil jaaye
phir fauj bhi hai lashkar bhi

sapnon ke rang mahal ki ik shehzaadi karne chala
arrey main shaadi karne chalaa
koyi bura kahey ya kahey bhala
main shaadi karne chalaa
arrey main shaadi karne chalaa

naachegi khushi aangan mein
dulhan jo chalegi chham se
naachegi khushi aangan mein
dulhan jo chalegi chham se
taqdeer teri jaagegi
tarkeeb samajh ley hamse
tu raazi ho to aa pyaarey
main kaazi karne chalaa
arrey he main shaadi karne chalaa
koyi bura kahey ya kahey bhala
main shaadi karne chalaa
aahhaa hhaa ha main shaadi karne chalaa

Blog Day :

We often hear this lament from oldtimers that things were simpler in their days and they have become complicated now a days. As a fresh entrant into the club of oldtimers, I tend to agree. Things were really simple in the old days. And they were easy to remember as well if you were a student who was required to remember these facts.

Take some examples from the past(my days of 1960s) and compare them with the present situation (2023)

Question asked Reply in 1960s Reply in 2023
Name of all Presidents of India Dr Rajendra Prasad, S Radhakrishnan, Zakir Hussain Too many to recall and name
Name of all Prime Ministers of India Jawaharlal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shashtri, Indira Gandhi Too many to recall and name
How many cricketers have scored over 8000 test runs Only one, Garfield Sobers Too many to recall and name
How many cricketers have taken over 300 test wickets Only one, Freddie Trueman Too many to recall and name
How many Indian cricketers have scored over 3000 test runs Only three, Polly Umrigar, Vijay Manjrekar, Chandu Borde Too many to recall and name
What are the various car models manufactured in India Ambassador, Premier Padmini Too many to recall and name
Days that are celebrated New Year, Republic Day, Independence day, Children’s day, Labour day Too many to recall and name

It is the answer to the last question that has led to this writeup. This morning Avinash Scrapwala informed me that today (7 May) is Laughter day. Now what is this laughter day ? And who decides these days ? Every day now a days has some vague day or the other. There are some days that celebrate more than one topic, often vague and unheard ones. There are 365 days but there many be more number of “Day” to celebrate. It is an overload of “days” now a days. No one can remember them, and no one can “celebrate” them all.

Who decided that today is Laughter day ? Does he mean that we need not laugh on other days, or did he think that laughter has become so rare that a day needed to be dedicated for it ? I do not think that alarming situation has arrived as yet.

My own view is that all these days are meant to create business for say greeting card makers. But now a days even greeting card makers cannot keep up with these days.

We also have world music day. This one day is for others. We in this blog have our music day every day.

My take on all these days is that they are for lazy people. What is the need to have say Music day. We do not have this need. Every day is music day for us. Why should we have Women’s day. Every day should be a Women’s day and well as Men’s day. Also Children’s day.

Coming to Laughter day, I think this day too is unnecessary. At least for us music lovers. Regulars of this blog many of them also connected through whatsapp, share jokes in the group every day. So we are having our laughter day daily.

Nevertheless, someone has decided to have a world laughter day today on 7 May. By the way, is this fellow the same one who came up with the idea of Happiness Index ? Let him come up with a laughter Index as well. I can predict that European countries will top the ranking. India will be ranked behind Pakistan and Bangladesh and this ranking will be used by Western Media to pooh pooh India achievements in various sectors.

But that is in the future. So far we only have a world Laughter day today. So we have to celebrate it.

Looking at the right side of the blog, I notice that there are 88 songs under the category of “Comedy” and another 73 under “comedy songs”. Then there are 319 songs under the category of “lighthearted” songs. There may be more but they have not been categorised under these heads. So this suggests that we have about 450 songs out of 17000 plus songs as comedy song. This suggesdts that 2.5 % of the songs represented in the blog are comedy songs.
If we have world sadness day or world melancholic day, we in the blog will be right up there with the best sad and / or melancholic people there. But they someone will create a world melancholy index and prove that Indians are way down that list too. 🙂

When we think of laughter, one thinks of Kishore Kumar immediately. Quite a few of his comedy songs are already represented in the blog. To celebrate the Laughter day, here is a less known of his comedy song. This song is from “Phagun”(1973).

“Phagun”(1973) was directed by Rajinder Singh Bedi for ‘Dachi Films, Bombay’. The movie had Waheeda Rehman, Dharmendra (special appearance), Jaya Bhaduri, Vijay Arora, Om Prakash, Ravi Ghosh, Jagdev Bhambri, K.S. Kriplani, Vimal Joshi, Indu Mehta, Smita, Rajrani, Suman Sinha, Baldev Trehan, Ramlal, Pardesi, Narmada Shankar, V. Gopal, Anand (Mamaji), Beri and others in it.

“Phagun”(1973) had six songs in it. Four songs have been covered in the past. Here is this song, the fifth from the movie to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Kishore Kumar, Pankaj Mitra, Sunil Kumar and R.S. Bedi. Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist. Music is composed by S D Burman.

It appears that only audio of the song is available. The movie itself came during the days when Rajesh Khanna ruled the roost and movies with other heroes did not find much favour with the audience. This movie was one of the lesser patronised movies of its time. That explains why this song, despite having the voice of Kishore Kumar in it failed to get popular. Personally I am listening to this for the first time. The song would have become popular had the movie done better at the box office.


Song-Laali mere laal ki (Phaagun)(1973) Singers-Kishore Kumar, Pankaj Mitra, Sunil Kumar, R.S. Bedi, Lyrics-Majrooh Sultanpuri, MD-S D Burman

We all have heard of World Happiness Index. We have heard about it because this index gives India a very low rating. People in India who believe in this rating ironically do not believe in ratings that shows India in good light. On the other hand, there are people who wonder how India can be ranked so low when we see countries that appear in far more distress than India ranked higher than India.

There are not too many people who actually buckle down and try to go to the details of this world Happiness Index. Not even the media who report on this topic. I have been thinking of going to the depth of this World Happiness Index for quite some time but I was not able to find time. You see, people like me who are inherently happy most of the time cannot be easily persuaded to waste time analysing an Index that accuses you of belonging to a country whose population is unhappy. 🙂

Nevertheless, someone had to do the painful job of analysing this world Happiness Index. No one in India is seemingly interested so I have volunteered and I have done it. In this post, I will give my findings on this index.

World Happiness Index is published by “The Sustainable Development Solutions Network” of the UN. They release their annual report on 20 march which has been declared as International Day of Happiness.

The General Assembly of the United Nations in its resolution 66/281 of 12 July 2012 proclaimed 20 March the International Day of Happiness recognizing the relevance of happiness and well-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings around the world and the importance of their recognition in public policy objectives.

The meeting was convened at an initiative of Bhutan, a country which recognized the supremacy of national happiness over national income since the early 1970s and famously adopted the goal of Gross National Happiness over Gross National Product.

World Happiness Index is compiled considering six characteristics to rank countries on overall happiness: GDP per capita, social support, life expectancy, freedom to make choices, generosity, and perception of corruption.

Factor Source data Remarks
GDP per capita World Bank /IMF figures Data can be considered objective
Social support Gallup polls Data is highly subjective as well be discussed later
Healthy Life expectancy WHO figures Data is objective
Freedom to make life choices Gallup polls Data is highly subjective as well be discussed later
Generosity Gallup polls Data is highly subjective as well be discussed later
Perception of corruption Gallup polls Data is highly subjective as well be discussed later

Let us discuss these factors in detail

Following two factors (out of six) can be considered Objective factors:-

Factor Maximum to Minimum range Remarks
GDP per capita 2.200 to 0.000 The GDP/capita is processed in a mathematically complicated mannner to arrive at figures where higher per capita nation gets assigned higher value. Luxembourg gets the highest value while Venezuela gets the lowest value
Healthy life expectancy 0.702 to 0.000 The life expectancy figure is processed in a mathematically complicated mannner to arrive at figures where country with higher life expectancy gets assigned higher value. Hongkong has the highest figure whereas Mozambique gets the lowest figure

I thought it was not possible to bungle in the above factors because figures for them are available on reputed sites. For example, GDP per capita is available on sites like World Bank, IMF etc. Likewise figures of Life expectancy are available on WHO site.

I notice that the country with the lowest GDP per capita in the Happiness chart is Venuzuela ! It defies logic. Venezuela per capita GDP is $ 7260 on PPP basis and $3460 on Nominal GDP basis in 2022. There are at least 50 countries behind Venezuela on GDP per capita basis. Such glaring error casts severe doubts on the authenticity of Happiness Index, at least for Venezuelans, if not for others. Had Venezuela’s rank been correct on GDP per capita basis, they would have ended up in top 30, instead of ending up at 89th position in the latest Happiness Index, (all other things remaining same).

I hope healthy life expectancy figures do not contain any such glaring errors.

The highest figure theoretically achievable for the above two factors is 2.200 + 0.702= 2.902. The lowest figure theoretically possible is 0.00. The actual highest achieved figures is 2.383 by Taiwan followed by USA of 2.370. So these two countries are the happiest if only GDP per capita and life expectancy rankings are considered. The actual lowest figures achieved on these two factors is 0.341 by Venezuela and 0.570 by Mozambique.
As discussed above, the faulty ranking of Venezuela in GDP per capita means that they end up at the very bottom when we add up its marks for the two factors.

As for India, India will be in 101th position with 1.411 marks. Pakistan with 1.238 will be at 109th position. Nepal 107th with 1.260. Bangladesh 97th with 1.487 marks. Sri Lanka 68th with 1.847 marks.

Now we come to the subjective factors. Unlike figures of GDP per capita and life expectancy which are collected and maintained by reputed world bodies with considerable experience and expertise, no well defined and accepted standards exist to measure the four subjective factors that form such a large part of World Happiness Index..Following are the four subjective factors that are considered while measuring happiness :-

Factor Maximum to Minimum range Remarks
Social support 1.620 to 0.000 Data is highly subjective as will be discussed later Iceland gets the highest rating Afghanistan the lowest
Freedom to make life choices 0.772 to 0.000 Data is highly subjective as will be discussed later .Finland scores the highest Afghanistan the lowest
Generosity 0.422 to 0.000 Data is highly subjective as will be discussed later. Indonesia scores the highest Georgia the lowest
Perception of corruption 0.561 to 0.000 Data is highly subjective as will be discussed later. Singapore scores the highest viz it is least corrupt-Romania considers itself the most corrupt

How were these figures arrived at ? Based on Gallup world polls (GWP). What are gallup polls? Gallup is an organisation that supposedly approaches a few people and ask them simple YES/ No questions. Based on the reply, the countries’ Social Support, Freedom to make choices, generosity and perception of corruption are measured and entire country gets branded. It is basically the opinion of the people polled. We know that opinions are not facts, but this World Happiness Index tries to pass off opinion of a few people as facts about a country.

Let us see what questions are asked. Under social support, the question anked is “If you were in trouble, do you have relatives or friends you can count on to help you whenever you need them, or not?”. The national average of the binary responses (0=no, 1=yes) to the Gallup World Poll (GWP) question is taken. In “social support”. India ranked an abysmal 121st is social support, but Pakistan and Bangladesh were even behind India as 123 and 132. Perhaps all these people are watchers of sad Hindi movies where society does not support the love birds. 🙂 I was under the impression that Asian countries with better social and family ties offers way more support to an individual in need than in Western countries where these ties are quite weak. Nevertheless, what people say in this poll matters in the happiness ranking , not the reality.

Under generosity, the question asked was -“Have you donated money to a charity in the past month?”. If the ansewr is yes, then the people of that counry are considered generous other wise miser. The fact that there are ways of being generous other than donating money, such as helping out by devoting time and effort, feeding hungry people free of cost etc does not count towards generosity as far as this happiness index “generosity” factor is concerned. When we look at the chart, we find that Nepal (one of the least developed countries in the world) which even today is getting loan from IMF is ranked at number 26 in Generosity. They consider themselves far more generous than G-7 countries with money like Germany (57), France (113), Japan(135) etc even though they do not lend any money to any other country. All they had to do was just to reply YES to the relevant generosity related poll and they leapfrogged most of the actually generous countries of the world. Likwise Pakistan (ranked 65) is considered more generous than China (88). 🙂 And we thought otherwise. 🙂

Freedom to make life choices is the national average of binary responses to the GWP question “Are you satisfied or dissatisfied with your freedom to choose what you do with your life?” Reply to this question throws up some hilarious rankings. Nepalese, who have hardly any options to chose from, feel that they have full freedom to make their life choices. So much so that they get a rank of 63 which is higher than USA (70) and Japan (71).

Perceptions of corruption are the average of binary answers to two GWP questions: “Is corruption widespread throughout the government or not?” and “Is corruption widespread within businesses or not?” Where data for government corruption are missing, the perception of business corruption is used as the overall corruption-perception measure. Perception of corruption polls are no less amusing. Myanmar is ranked 33 which is higher than the ranking of USA (38). Even Bangladesh at 40 considers itself less corrupt than South Korea (41), Israel (44), Spain (45) etc. In Indian sub continent, Sri Lankans consider themselves more corrupt than their other south Asian neighbours.

Theoretically the highest scoring country can score the maximum of 3.375 in the four factors (viz. 1.620 + 0.772 + 0.422+ 0.561= 3.375). The highest figure actually achieved under these categories is 3.018 by Finland followed by 3.016 by Denmark.
Likewise the worst scoring country can score a low figure of 0.000 + 0.000 +0.000 + 0.000=0.000. In reality the lowest scoring country in these categories is Afghanistan at 0.152 followed by Lebanon at 0.687.

When we combine the marks of two objective categories with the marks obtained in the four subjective categories then we get overall points under the six catogories. According to that, Singapore emerges first at 5.52 points, Denmark comes at number 2 with 5.503, Sweden is third at 5.492 , Norway is fourth at 5.486, Finland is fifth at 5.441, Israel 23rd at 4.782, USA is 25th at 4.769.

Among Indian subcontinent countries, Sri Lanka is 73rd with 3.817, Nepal at 96th with 3.173, India 101st with 3.057,Bangladesh 106th with 2.922, Pakistan is 114th with 2.649.

I can see vehement protests coming from some quarters because the World Happiness ranking shows India behind all its neigbours in general, and behind Pakistan and Bangladesh in particular.

I am going to explain how India fell behind Pakistan, Bangladesh etc despite outscoring them in the six categories. India was put behind Pakistan and Bangladesh by shifting the goalpost. Yes, those who create this world Happiness Index have kept a trick up their sleeve which they use to manipulate the ranking arbitrary at their whim and fancy. To achieve this manipulation, they have introduced another category called Dystopia + residual.

“Dystopia” is a hypothetical nation that scores the lowest under all categories. Dystopia represents the lowest national averages for each of the six key variables and is, along with residual error, used as a regression benchmark.

From the earlier discussion we have seen that “Dystopia” nation would achieve a score of 0.000 under the six categories. The country that comes the closest to Dystopia in our ranking seen so far is Afghanistan that scores 0.883. Next country after Afghanistan is Comoros with 1.847.

From the above explanation of Dystopia, one would assume that countries that score high marks (and are thus far away from the hypothetical country of Dystopia would have similar marks under the heading of Dystopia + residual. Likewise countries that score poorly under the six factors and are thus closer to Dystopia would be expected to score similar marks under the heading of Dystopia + residual. Not by a long shot ! We cannot be more wrong !

We find that countries that score very high under the six headings and countries that score abysmally can have similar scores under the heading of Dystopia + residual. On the otherhand Countries that have similar scores under the six categories can have vastly different scores under the category of Dystopia + residual. In fact, countries that were way behind after adding up their marks under the six categories were made to leapfrog other nations rather unfairly and arbitrarily.

Here are some examples to show the arbitrariness of all this.

Singapore that stood first in ranking when the scores of six categories were counted was given a score of only 1.067 in the category of Dystopia + residual. Denmark was given 2.084, Sweden 1.903, Norway 1.829 and Finland 2.423.

When this dystopia + Residual category figures were added to the sum total total of the six categories, Finland became the number one nation, whereas Singapore, for no fault of theirs was relegated from number one position down to 26th position. Israel, who were on a lowly 23rd position, jumped up to 4th because they were given a whopping 2.691 under the category of Dystopia + residual.

Let us see the above discussion in tabular form:

Country sum total marks of six categories Ranking after sum total of six categories Marks given in the category of Dystopia + residual Final marks Final ranking
Singapore 5.520 1st 1.067 6.587 26th
Finland 5.441 5th 2.363 7.804 1st
Israel 4.782 23rd 2.691 7.473 4th

We have heard that Finland was number one in the happiness ranking for the fifth year in a row. How creditable, we are told. Now we know how they are achieving their number one ranking year after year. It is by using corrupt means. It has been done by awarding them very high marks and awarding the actual winner very low marks on the artificially and fraudulently created category of dystopia + Residual.

Let us now come to the changes in ranking of Indian subcontinent nations before and after Dystopia + residual marks.

Country sum total marks of six categories Ranking after sum total of six categories Marks given in the category of Dystopia + residual Final marks Final ranking
India 3.057 101st 0.979 4.036 126th
Pakistan 2.649 114th 1.907 4.555 108th
Bangladesh 2.922 106th 1.361 4.282 118th
Nepal 3.173 96th 2.187 5.360 78th
Sri Lanka 3.817 73rd 0.625 4.442 112th

We observe that Sri Lanka was 73rd and India was 101st in the happiness ranking. But those who publish the list had other ideas. They awarded low marks to India and Sri Lanka and such high marks to Pakistan and Bangladesh under Dystopia + residual that they rose above India. In their overenthusiasm, they awarded such high marks to Nepal that it reached a rank of 78th where it hardly belongs.

India finds itself behind Pakistan and Bangladesh, and also behind countries like Mali and Liberia, but then that was because Mali and Liberia were artificially granted huge points viz 2.070 and 1.869 respectively under the category of Dystopia + residual, otherwise they were at the bottom without the grace marks provided under Dystopia + residual.

The data for this happiness index 2023 is available in the excel sheet format at this link.

The relevant page containing the above data is this and this.

So, my conclusion is, this world happiness Index is a bogus ranking. It is hogwash, it is fraud. It should not be taken seriously. The people behind this ranking are taking people for a ride by creating a list that is based on dubious data where opinions of a few hundred people are used to brand an entire nation as happy or unhappy. When even that does not serve the purpose, they further move nations up or down the list by arbitrarily increasing or decreasing their marks in the column of dystopia + error which itself is a column created to manipulate the rankings.

Gallup methodology of poll shows that they take a poll of a few hundred people without doing any due diligence to ensure that their polls follows the principles of sampling. In a country like India, whose population is more than that of any continent (other than Asia), a truly representative sampling would run into at least 25 thousand people, may be a few lakhs, and it would take elaborate preparation and vast expenditure on the scale of Indian elections opinion polls. I do not think Gallup have bothered to spend so much time, money and effort while carrying out their polls in India, if at all they have bothered to carry it out. Had they done this exercise in India, this would have been a vast exercise and we would have known about it. But we do not know anything about it. So most likely, their poll in India has been an eyewash. Few people seem to have questioned their methodology. Most people interested in Indian affairs seem to have blindly believed this happiness ranking and they have used this ranking to bash the Indian government or it has been used to troll India and Indians.

Based on the above discussion, I feel that the world Happiness Index is not worth the paper it is printed on. Indians should stop giving credence to it because plainly speaking it is nothing but a fraud that has successfully been perpetrated for over a decade by now. Forget Indians, people worldwide should also question the people behind this Index. So far they have managed to avoid scrutiny and have continued on their own merry ways.

I hope readers will now gain some insight into the mechanism of this so called World Happiness Index. The creators of this index decide the ranking beforehand and then they artificially award points under the column of Dystopia + residual. It is the most corrupt methodology to make a list.

I have not yet analysed press freedom index, democracy index, human rights index etc. There too India is ranked low behind countries that have now press freedom, no democracy and no human rights. When I analyse them, I am sure I will find similar gory details there as well.

I have mentioned in the beginning of the post that I am by nature a happy person. My guess is that most readers of this blog are also like me. I feel that music lovers are by nature well adjusted people who find it easy to stay happy most of the time. Even our film songs are no different. In almost all movies of golden era, we had happy joyuos songs where actors would be seen singing and dancing, often for no apparent reasons. On other occasions, they are singing and dancing because it is some festival/ celebration. Indians have so many festivals, and so many occasions of celebration. And all those occasions finds people singing and dancing. If that does not count towards happiness index, that is the problem of the index makers. Indians are more happy than the Happiness Index makers can ever imagine.

Here is a happy song from a movie called “Dil Ka Raja”(1972).

‘Dil Ka Raaja-1972’ was produced by A K Nadiadwala and directed by P. Madhwan for ‘Nadiadwala Associates, Bombay’. The movie had Raj Kumar, Leena Chandavarkar, Ajit, Bindu, Jagdeep, Indrani Mukherjee, Randhir, Meena T., Sheikh, Surendra Rahi, Manjeet, Omkar, Pandit Iqbal, Jankidas, Uma Dutt, Rajesh, Maqbool, Master Anil, Master Ripal, and Waheeda Rehman (in special appearance) etc in it.

The movie had five songs in it. Two songs have been covered in the past.

While looking for a joyous song to go with this post on World Happiness ranking, I came across that song. I realised that I had last heard this song in 1972, when this song was quite a popular song. I loved this song, though I had no inkling which movie this song was from. Now more than half a century later, I find myself getting reunited with this song, like how it happens in a Manmohan Desai movie.

The song is sung by Rafi, Asha Bhonsle and Manna Dey. It is picturised as a joyous dance song on Raj KUmar (double role of father and son, Leena Chandawarkar and Jagdeep plus another person that I could not uidentify. I request our knowledgeable readers to identify the unidentified person. What a wonderfully lively and joyous song ! Enjoy !

Today’s song is from a different type of film….King Kong-1962.

King Kong is actually a fictional Giant Monster resembling a Gorilla. It was created by Merian Cooper. No wonder film wallahs all over the world, especially Hollywood and then Bollywood, were attracted towards King Kong and many films were made on him. The first film King Kong was made in 1933 in Hollywood and released on 7-4-1933. The latest picture King Kong is made in Hollywood in 2022, i.e. last year. It proves that the King Kong magic is still alive !

In India, the first King Kong film was made in 1962 and the second film came in 1986. Today’s film King Kong-1962 has 3 specialities….

1. It was the First film titled King Kong in India.
2. This was Dara Singh’s First film as a Hero and
3. King Kong, the real Hungarian world famous wrestler – whose real name was Emile Czaja (pronounced Za Za) had also acted in this film, as King Kong.

” There is a child in every adult ” said Carl Jung. How true it is, is found from our own thoughts and behaviour. Given a choice, time and freedom, everyone is ready to do things he did as a child. During childhood, one has respect for unusual strength, magic,superpowers and ability to do impossible things. That is why stories of Hanuman and Bheem are popular.
Stunt and action films in olden times and films with a lot of SFX in modern times became popular.We know that we can not do these things, so people see whoever does these. From this thought alone, when stunt and action films started waning, the game of wrestling became popular. Lakhs of people watched the wrestling bouts between Indian and foreign wrestlers.

Would the film industry miss this change in social thinking ? NEVER ! From the early 60’s, Musclemen and wrestlers became Heroes in Hindi films, where the might of Physical strength was the answer to establish social equality and the rule of law. This gave way to wrestlers, Mr. Indias and Bodybuilders like Dara Singh, Randhava, Azad and others to be the central characters of films and this new genre became popular.

Most in demand was of course Dara Singh. The 60’s opened up a new Genre of Films. Films in which muscular He-men ‘acted’. Really speaking, their dialogues were delivered silently by their solid bodies and the fighting they did on the screens. Here were the Heroes who would kill dangerous Jungle animals barehanded, break Iron chains, fight with 10 people at a time, ride horses, swim expertly and overall display their physical might !
The beginning was done in 1958 with ‘Zimbo’, featuring Azad-a Parsee Bodybuilder. That way Dara Singh had entered the films in 1952 with ‘Sangdil’ and he had a wrestling match with Om prakash in ‘Pehli Jhalak’-1954. His first film as a hero -King Kong came in 1962, when he was already 34 year old !

That was a period when the Indian culture of defeats in all possible sports was on the peak and the Indians were looking for a Saviour. In Dara Singh, India found a SuperHero who won not only in India but also in Commonwealth and the World championships. Dara Singh was much more than an Actor. He was a piece of Folklore and he became a social phenomenon soon. He was a hybrid of Myth and Folklore, larger than life evocation of the Desi Hero. He represented the Indian idea of Masculinity-The Mard, a He Man. He had the muscle prowess but no aggression. He evoked security, gentleness and the right kind of patriarchy. He was proud to be a Jat and an Indian.

He was a Pehalwan trained in the Indian style of wrestling. Dara’s victories against King Kong and Zybisco in the late 50s made him a legend. Lakhs of people would gather at the venues of his bouts. He brought wrestling from the Akhadas to the Drawing rooms of Affluent homes. He remained Undefeated in 500+ bouts in his lifetime, winning Indian Championship in 1953, the Commonwealth championship in 1959 and the World Championship in 1968, when he was into acting in Hindi films full fledgedly !

He did roles of Kings, Princes, Rebels, Mutineer, Jungle Boy, Samson, Hercules, Sikander and the greatest role of his life as Hanuman. There may be 300 odd types of Ramayans, but only one Hanuman-Dara Singh. He was, for most people, the embodiment of the Monkey God. Without him the Ramayan was never the same ! Dara Singh, I am sure, would have been the original choice of even Valmiki !!!

Dara Singh was the Indian Superman. Even when he started doing character roles, the Heroes were happy to work with him. In one interview ( he gave interviews very rarely-he used blush too much), he had said,” Out of all my roles, I liked my role in Anand-70, where I was very comfortable doing my real life role-that of a Pahilwan in an Akhada !” He was probably one of the few who worked in A, B and C grade films in his life with equal ease and aplomb. Whether it was Mumtaz or Amitabh, he remained Dara Singh-Rustic, Strong, Indian, Gentle, Protective and Chivalrous.

Dara Singh was born at village Dharmuchak in Amritsar district on 19-11-1928 to Surat Singh and Balwant Kaur. He was married to Surjit Kaur Randhwa on 11-5-1961 and they had a son. From his second marriage he had 3 daughters and 2 sons. At the age of 22, he went to Singapore and won several championships. At 24 he did his first film role in Sangdil-52 and he became a Hero at 34 years of age. He did 122 Hindi films, 22 Punjabi films, besides producing 3 and directing 9 films.

He continued wrestling up to 1970. In 1978, he established his Dara Studios in Mohali, Punjab. His last film came in 2012-“Ata pata lapata”. With Mumtaz he did 16 films out of which 12 were Hit films. In those days, he was paid 4 lakh rupees per film. Dara Singh died on 12-7-2012. His brother Randhwa died on 21-10-2013 ( this news was hardly noticed).

Many Bodybuilders tried to copy Dara Singh. Their films never succeeded because people knew who the original Superman was. Indrajit, Viju Penkar, Hercules, Azad and even Randhwa did few Dara-like films, but they were never accepted by the audience. Dara Singh was Unique. One may think that his films were seen and liked only by the lower strata of society or exclusive C grade film audiences, but it was wrong. Dara Singh films were ‘Super Deluxe’ versions of B and C class films and were liked by people from Top class to bottom class. I was a great fan of Dara films and rarely missed any of them.

Today’s film King Kong-1962, a stunt film, was made by Santosh production, Bombay. It was directed by “Trick Wizard” Cinematographer and editor Babubhai Mistry. The3 songe were written by Majrooh Sultanpuri and the Musical score was by the melody King Chitragupt. The cast of the film was Kumkum, Dara Singh,Chandrashekhar, praveen Chaudhary, kamal mehra, Parshuram, Sheila kashmiri, leela mishra, Uma Dutt and King Kong-the famous wrestler himself.

The story of how Kamal Mehra came into films is very interesting. One day, when the famous producer- director Kedar Sharma was in Delhi in connection with the premier of one of his pictures, he noticed a smart young man in a queue in front of the booking office of the Odeon cinema.

The film maker was struck by the lad’s personality and signed him up on the spot. Young Kamal Mehra then came to Bombay to star opposite Geeta Bali in Kedar Sharma’s ‘Thes’ -49. Subsequently the young man has featured in several films including Dhoon in which he played the villain. Today he plays comedy roles in most of his pictures. (from Filmi Year Book-1958)
He has worked in 50 films. He directed the film Naami Chor-1977 and produced 3 films. His last film as an actor was Jeena hai pyar mein-1983.

The story of the film King Kong-1962 was…..

KING KONG-1962 is easily the best film of Dara Singh from the 60s.It also established him as a popular hero of the B and C grade films.

The story is of the set pattern,In fact most of the DS film stories are so similar in content-give or take few changes like names etc-that one wonders why this dearth of stories for DS films.The simple reason is the audience of DS films never goes to his films for story or histrionic talents of the artists,but to see the fantastic muscle shows and bouts with variety of wrestlers.

In this film,a wicked prime Minister kills the king to usurp his throne.Before he kills them,the queen and her 2 sons escape and stay in a jungle incognito.
Jingu(Dara Singh) grows up to become a very powerful He Man.His brother Badal(Chandrasekhar)becomes a happy go lucky guy.Once DS saves Radhi(Kumkum) and her saheli Chhabili(sheila Kashmiri) from a strange Dinosaur like animal and kills it.Radhi starts loving Jingu and Chhabili loves Badal.

Meanwhile the king wants to send the existing ‘King kong’ title holder to the jungle to kill the animal,but learns about the heroics of Jingu and invites him,with family, to the capital to honour him.When Jingu reaches the Darbar,the king offers him to marry the Princess(Pravin Chaudhary).Jingu refuses.

The existing Kingkong challenges Jingu and there is a bout in which Jingu wins the title of new King kong.The king learns that he is the son of ex-king,so he captures Jingu and family.Jingu breaks the iron chains,destroys the palace and captures the evil King.

The king is punished. Jingu the King Kong is crowned as new King and all are happy-especially Radhi,Badal-Chhabili and the king’s mother for having taken the revenge.

Let us now enjoy the video song from today’s film…..

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Phagun-1973)
——————————————-———————

“Phaagun-1973” was directed by Rajinder Singh Bedi for ‘Dachi Films, Bombay’.

It had Waheeda Rehman, Dharmendra (special appearance), Jaya Bhaduri, Vijay Arora, Om Prakash, Ravi Ghosh, Jagdev Bhambri, K.S. Kriplani, Vimal Joshi, Indu Mehta, Smita, Rajrani, Suman Sinha, Baldev Trehan, Ramlal, Pardesi, Narmada Shankar, V. Gopal, Anand (Mamaji), Beri and others.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 08.06.1973. So, this movie is going to be fifty years old within couple of months’ time.

“Phaagun-1973” has six songs written by Majrooh Sultanpuri and composed to music by S.D. Burman.

I remember to have watched this movie on ‘Doordarshan’ during 1985-1988. I also remember that I had likened this movie and its storyline. Except the ‘holi’ song from this movie none of the other songs made an impact on me and over the years I forgot them. On the other hand, I remembered a few songs of ‘Phaagun-1958’ where the music was composed by O.P. Nayyar.

After becoming associated with this blog I got to listen to another song from this movie ‘Phaagun-1973’ which was in the voice of Shobha Gurtu. I had then shared this song for the blog.

While browsing through the blog recently, I noticed that as many as three songs from this movie are still remaining to be posted on the blog.

And the movie already has the same number of songs already posted on the blog. So we are exactlyat the half way mark for this movie.

Today we add the fourth song to this movie’s tally on the blog.

This song is sung by Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhonsle. Though it may not be a popular song it is still a nice hummable duet song to listen to and enjoy.The song is picturised on Vijay Arora and Jaya Bhaduri.

The three songs from this movie ‘Phaagun-1973’ already available on the blog are as given below;

SNo Song Title Singer/s Posted On
01 Piya sang khelo holi phaagun aayo re Lata Mangeshkar, chorus 11.0.2009
02 Sandhya jo aaye Lata Mangeshkar 24.05.2014
03 Morey sainyya bedardi ban gaye Shobha Gurtu 09.01.2015

None of the songs from this movie ‘Phaagun-1973’ made it to the ‘annual list of Binaca Geetmala’ of ‘1973’. One of its songs ‘sandhya jo aaye’ figured among the next lower rung of 32 songs.

Let us now listen to the fourth song from ‘Phaagun-1973’ and bring this movie closer to ‘Yippeeee’.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Salaam Memsaab-1979)
——————————————-——————————

On this blog we have at least two movies (that I came across) where the movies have made their debut with songs originally part of some earlier movie and not really part of the movie being discussed.

One such movie is ‘Salaam Memsaab-1979’.

This movie made its debut on the blog with a re-used song ‘pyaar huaa ikraar huaa hai’ which originally is the song from the movie ‘Shri 420’.

So, today we get introduced to the actual first song from this movie ‘Salaam Memsaab-1979’ on the blog.

“Salaam Memsaab-1979” was directed by Asrani for ‘Roshan Films’. It had Asrani, Zareena Wahab, Manju Bansal, Rehman, Keshto Mukherjee, Asit Sen, Jugnu, Leela Mishra, Sulochana (Senior), Tom Alter, C.S. Dubey, Arvind Rathod, Anand Girdhar, Amol Sen, Dilip Tahil, Neelu Arora, Master Jeetu, Yusuf, Raju, Ranjeet and others.

Ashok Kumar, Sunil Dutt, Yogita Bali and Rishi Kapoor made a special appearance in this movie.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 12.01.1979.

“Salaam Memsaab-1979” has seven songs (other than the song of Shri 420 which was re-used) written by Majrooh Sultanpuri. Music for this movie was composed by R.D. Burman.

Here is the detail of the songs of this movie:-

SNo Song Title Singer/s
01 Salaam memsaab… ham bhi raahon mein khade hain Kishore Kumar,Lata Mangeshkar
02 Na sharaab se koi waastaa Mohd Rafi, Bhupendra Singh
03 Jaanewaale suntaa jaa hamaari kahaani Kishore Kumar
04 ham bhi raahon mein khade hain Lata Mangeshkar
05 Tum bhi meri jaan… haay re mar jaaun Asha Bhonsle
06 Tera kahaa maine kiyaa, ab na kiyaa jaaye re haay Asha Bhonsle
07 ham bhi raahon mein khade hain Kishore Kumar

While presenting the ‘used’ song of ‘Shri 420’ from this movie Shri Sudhir ji has mentioned about the background of the story of this movie ‘Salaam Memsaab-1979’ in brief. I am re-producing the same below.

Radha (role played by Zarina Wahab) and Sunder (role played by Asrani) are two young people, friends and in love. They are the street tamaasha people who sing and dance on the roadside to earn their living. Sunder has high aspirations, and wants to become rich quickly. Radha also has aspirations, but she is averse to making compromises with her principles of honesty and truthfulness. They work together, but this difference in their view of life generates arguments.

`
This background helps us to understand the context for the today’s songs (multiple versions) in this movie.

The duet sung by Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar gives us an idea of the ‘initial song’ when Radha and Sunder must be performing their ‘roadside tamaasha’.

The second part (or version) of this song which is a female version sung by Lata Mangeshkar seems to happen when Radha and Sunder gets separated and are not in touch with each other.

ham nahin bhoole tumko
tum bhoolaa baithhe hamko o
bewafaa phir bhi keh de
kaise apne baalam ko
dil ko tadpaane waale ae
laut aa jaanewaale ae

(It seems that the video for the above two versions is not available, or I was unable to locate it?).

However the video for the third version which is sung by Kishore Kumar is available and from the video we can guess that Sundar had already become a rich person but missing Radha and he sings this version at a party held by other actress (Manju Bansal) I guess.

The verses by Majrooh Sultanpuri are very nice and so is the composition by Pancham which deserves to be well known. Kishore Kumar has sung this song with gusto with Lata Mangeshkar supporting him equally. However, I guess that the songs from this movie seem to have forgotten may be because the movie itself didn’t performed well at the box-office.

I would request knowledgeable readers who have watched this movie to throw more light on this movie and its songs.

Let us now listen to the today’s song (or songs rather) and re-welcome ‘Salaam Memsaab-1979’ on the blog …
